DETROIT (AP) - The Cleveland Indians are juggling their roster just before a key three-game series with the AL Central Division-leading Detroit Tigers.

The Indians placed infielder Jason Kipnis on the 15-day disabled list because of a strained right hamstring, and optioned outfielder Ezequiel Carrera to Triple-A Columbus. Cleveland also recalled outfielder Shelley Duncan and infielder Luis Valbuena from Columbus.
